For some reason lately my regulator had been acting funny. Upon start up it seems that the bubbles are barely trickling out at the bubble counter. In order for me to get things flowing I have to kick up the working pressure to about 40psi. Sometimes it works and then other times its as if the pressure is lost and the bubbles start to trickle out again at the bubble counter. Any ideas? Is my regulator busted? My needle valve?
check leak, especially under the bubble counter where it connects to the metal fitting.
if no leak, up the output pressure at around 40 psi.
